Griffen is there play maker, a lot of the bulldogs play seems to feed from him, with him out this should be a given for us. really can't see us dropping this now.

We will see.

12 weeks is a massive time out of anyone. It's a bad hammy.

Personally I hope he is kept out because some of our younger players are scoring a lot of goals.

When they say 12 weeks, is that until he's able to start training? If so, it's a minimumof 16 weeks before he could resume in the AFL, I would have thought.

Riewoldt and Gibson missed 12 weeks (11 games) in 2010 with the injury. So you'd assume that would include a couple of weeks of full running.

Kerr obviously missed something like 49 weeks with it. Lloyd missed most of 2006 with the same injury.

I guess it depends on how severe the tear is and the success of the surgery - the reality that they've put 12 weeks on it might suggest that hopefully it is closer to the Riewoldt/Gibson scenario then the Kerr/Lloyd one.

Rd 14 against Gold Coast looks like a nice spot to return after a few weeks in the WAFL
